(26/03) Adapting the project to COVID-19 circumstances

Evidently I do not have the same resources accessible to me at home in Chester then I would if I had access to the campus. I was able to bring with me lino cut and printing materials making some of the concepts in which i had the ink slowly bleeding imagery as water was slowly dripped on it from a suspended source possible. However this project is not 3D in the way I wanted to try. In order to create a visible communication of Alzheimers I wanted something more visceral that you could reach out and touch. Now with the added layer of submitting all outcomes digitally it makes that medium much more appealing, especially when I have access to an iPad pro with several effective apps on it. Animation would also be a better format, but it is a narrative one. Each of these mediums I have already ruled out in the earlier stages of the project in order to be more ambitious with my outcome as they are all things i have produced before. 3D is a format though I rarely get to explore and so had wanted to use this project to learn new processes. however I now do not have access to any woodshed machinery nor 3d printer. Or later cutter. I had wanted to learn to use the vacuum form in order to create a solid mould to compact a more flimsy material in order to create the deteriorating effect.

I will be researching processes that I can complete from home in order to make a homemade mould, for an object that is considerable in scale.
